Fig. 1. Angiogram of the right femoral artery with catheter introducing sheath (oblique anterior right projection 50º). The discontinuous parallel lines indicate the upper and lower levels of the ...

Thus, it was difficult for him to undergo angiography, in which a tube (called sheath) and another smaller tube (catheter), together measuring at least 2.8 mm, are inserted in the arteries.

Angiography involves the use of x-ray imaging to examine blood vessels. The images generated during an angiography procedure are known as angiograms. First, a needle is placed into the femoral ...

Thus, it was difficult for him to undergo angiography, in which a tube (called sheath) and another smaller tube (catheter), together measuring at least 2.8 mm, are inserted in the arteries.

On February 2, 2024, the patient underwent an invasive coronary angiography (CA). During the procedure, the right radial artery was successfully punctured under local anesthesia, and a 6-F sheath ...

Femoral anatomy has been studied through dissection and angiography. 6-9 However, a systematic visual analysis of the relation between catheter sheath entry site and vascular complications associated ...

Typically, the common femoral artery (CFA) is identified as the optimal puncture site, owing to its considerable diameter and the ease of compressing it against the femoral head. 1 The ideal target ...
